Dominique Phillips, BACP

Dominique works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage emotions and change unhelpful patterns. One approach focuses on identifying and altering everyday thoughts and behaviours that fuel anxiety and low mood, using simple experiments and new routines to test what works. Another approach pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns, helping people notice how past experiences shape current connections and practising different ways of communicating and relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Dominique works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the work as progress unfolds. Clients are involved in choosing goals and reviewing what helps most as therapy continues.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow visual contact and longer conversations, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter space is needed, and live chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping continuity of support.
